I have studied Yoga for 20 years and was first introduced to ViniYoga in 2004 where a teacher from Bristol visited Edinburgh. I took my first trip to Krishnamacarya Yoga Mandiram in 2006 where I completed a 4 week programme of study in a group of around 35 students from across the world. I started working individually with my teacher Padmini in 2007 and have made around 5 further trips to India since.

I qualified as a Yoga teacher in 2009 and have experience teaching; in a medical centre in California, teaching women fleeing from domestic abuse in Edinburgh, general Yoga Classes and individual lessons also in Edinburgh. I also arrange annual trips to KYM in Chennai each February for those who’d like to know more about Yoga Therapy.

Along with my Yoga qualification I also hold qualifications in Massage, Nutritional Therapy, Teaching and Counselling Skills. I am a keen student of schools of Philosophy both from India and the West and I have a particular interest in how Yoga can improve self-esteem.
